Gas prices fall, but the still high in the West

Finally, the western states are feeling some relief at the pump. Prices have fallen by twelve cents a gallon in Oregon since last week at this time. The average price in Oregon now is $4.10, which is still sky high compared to much of the country. Drivers in Oklahoma and Texas are paying $3.12 right now. Prices could continue to fall, although the price of crude oil rose yesterday and gas prices are often tied to that indicator.
